A method for treating an interior weld joint located along an inner surface of a pipe includes the steps of: (a) advancing an internal grinder device within the pipe to the interior weld joint, wherein the internal grinder device includes a hollow housing that has a first open end and a first grinding implement that is disposed within the hollow housing and coupled thereto with a first biasing member; and (b) controllably rotating the hollow housing to at least a threshold speed at which time and under centrifugal force, the first grinding implement moves from an at rest retracted position to a deployed position in which the first grinding implement extends radially beyond the first open end for contacting and grinding the interior weld joint as the hollow housing and the first grinding implement are rotated.

A device for covering a cut gap which can be produced by a machine tool. The device can be connected to a dust suctioning device so that the dust produced while working with the machine tool can be removed from the working area of the machine tool using the dust suctioning tool. A second aspect of the invention relates to a system consisting of at least two proposed devices. Another aspect of the invention relates to a method for suctioning dust from a working region of a machine tool. The device includes sealing caps which can be connected to a dust suctioning device via suction connecting pieces. Furthermore, the sealing caps are used to seal the working area in which the working process of the machine tool is carried out.

A suction-extraction adapter for a drilling tool has a housing and a tool connection unit. The housing has a suction-extraction device interface for the detachable connection of a suction-extraction device to the suction-extraction adapter. The tool connection unit enables the axial fixing of the suction-extraction adapter on the drilling tool. The housing also has a locking mechanism. The tool connection unit is configured to be locked on the housing of the suction-extraction adapter via the locking mechanism.

A fastening device for a dust extraction device is configured to detachably connect the dust extraction device to a hand-held power tool. The fastening device includes a first connection unit and a second connection unit. The first connection unit is configured to connect the dust extraction device to the hand-held power tool by form closure. The second connection unit is configured to connect the dust extraction device to the hand-held power tool by force closure.

A dust collecting system includes a power tool and a stationary dust collector. The power tool is configured to perform processing operation on a workpiece by driving a tool accessory. The stationary dust collector is configured to be placed separately from the power tool and to collect dust generated by the processing operation. The power tool includes a first motor and a driving mechanism configured to drive the tool accessory by power of the first motor. The dust collector includes a second motor and a fan configured to be rotationally driven by the second motor to generate air flow for collecting dust. The dust collecting system includes a control device configured to control a rotation speed of the second motor according to a driving state of the power tool.

A dust collector in one aspect of the present invention comprises a dust collection portion, a communication portion, and an interlock operation control portion. When the communication portion receives an interlock command transmitted from an electric working machine, the interlock operation control portion makes the dust collection portion operate interlocking with the electric working machine. The interlock operation control portion includes a storage portion, in which identification information specific to the electric working machine with which the dust collection portion is to be made to perform the interlock operation is stored.

A suction hose for a vacuum cleaner including a hose portion, which has a flexible dust removal hose body and a flexible jacket hose body, in which the dust removal hose body is arranged, wherein a suction flow channel for conducting a suction flow to the vacuum cleaner extends between longitudinal ends of the hose portion, which suction flow channel is bounded by a hose jacket of the dust removal hose body, a connection piece for connecting to the hand-held power tool or to the vacuum cleaner is arranged at at least one longitudinal end of the hose portion, and the jacket hose body and the dust removal hose body extend into an interior of a hose receptacle of the connection piece such that the dust removal hose body is sheathed by the jacket hose body into the hose receptacle.

A power tool includes a power tool housing including a fluid inlet and a discharge outlet. A motor is supported by the power tool housing. A tool is configured to be moved relative to the housing by the motor. A fan is configured to be rotated by the motor, such that a fluid flow with debris generated by movement of the tool is drawn into the fluid inlet and through the discharge outlet. A filter is removably attached to the power tool housing. The filter includes a filter media configured to separate the debris from the flow of fluid. The filter media includes a collection container configured to store the debris. The filter also includes an opening in the filter media through which the flow of fluid with the debris enters the collection container, and a valve that is moveable between a closed position and an open position.

An assembly for a hand-held drill is disclosed. The assembly includes a drill guide and a vacuum shroud. The drill guide includes a mount, a telescoping guard, and a guide foot. The mount is configured to couple to a non-rotating portion of the hand-held drill. The telescoping guard extends from the mount. The guide foot is coupled to the telescoping guard opposite the mount such that the drill guide enshrouds a drill bit of the hand-held drill when the telescoping guard is in an extended position. The vacuum shroud is removably fastenable to the drill guide. The vacuum shroud includes an outer wall and a vacuum hose connector. The outer wall forms an elongate vacuum cavity between an inlet proximate to the guide foot and an outlet distal from the guide foot. A vacuum hose connector is positioned at the outlet distal from the guide foot.
